So you're more focused on that one particular phrase instead of understanding the point of Runa's entire comment...

No the entire theme of Runa's comment was that Canada and Northern Europe are the greatest and all people will live happy lives with no predjudices here, and the "stupid country" (his words) that is the United States is so much worst in comparison. I disagree with that, and replied with Canada isn't perfect either. His post wasn't even about discrimination. Re-read it. "There is no racism, no sexism, and there is nothing which is in the way of religious intolerance." Obviously this isn't representative for all of Canada outside his workspace, just like the United States isn't represented by the bible belt. 

No, the entire theme is that the amount of discimmination is significantly less in Canada and Northern Europe than in the US. Doesn't necessarily mean that those regions are bereft of it, but compared to the US, much much less.

And I actually kinda agree with his "stupid country" statement.
